Product: Hortech LiveWall Vertical Planting System

To turn exterior walls into a green landscape, Hortech’s LiveWall vertical planting system uses recycled, architectural-grade plastic planter modules that allow plants to grow in their natural orientation: up. Secured on mounting tracks that integrate a mist irrigation system, the planters come in six colors (wheat shown) and are 6″ deep by 5″ wide and 8″ or 16″ long. Hortech’s licensed regional growers can select locally cultivated plants—annuals, perennials, herbs, vegetables, succulents, or tropical—to suit a particular project. livewall.com
